Shoulder had blue shirts with stars and Rocky Balboa shorts.

Phobia 04-18-2012 10:53 AM

I think this is the first and last time I'll ever see that uniform.

Frankie 04-18-2012 10:58 AM

BTW, I didn't know Obama played soccer.

SPATCH 04-18-2012 11:09 AM

Love it. and LOVE Clint Dempsey.

vailpass 04-18-2012 11:10 AM

God. Do they actually try to perpetuate the stereotypes?

This. More traditional soccer style with a modern fit. I like it.

Dr. Johnny Fever 04-18-2012 11:14 AM

The orange shoes go well with red, white and blue.

Oh and I don't care for it. Everyone knows horizontal stripes make you look fat.

DJay23 04-18-2012 11:15 AM

I like em.

Dragonocho 04-18-2012 11:36 AM

if they win I like the uni. Wait, maybe it's just that I care about winning.

CHENZ A! 04-18-2012 11:37 AM

I like them. I wasn't crazy about our home Jerseys prior to these.

blaise 04-18-2012 11:38 AM

Looks a little like FC Dallas with blue shorts.

listopencil 04-18-2012 11:50 AM

They look OK, but it would be great if all the teams had to put "I'm playing soccer" on the jerseys. That way I'd know right away that I don't give a shit without actually having to pay attention.

RaiderH8r 04-18-2012 11:50 AM

They'll have a lot of time to show off in front of the mirror while they're NOT playing in the Olympics. F'ing losers. That's what their kit should say: F'ing losers. We grow pansies. We are the leftover genetic scum of America's athletic pool. We FAIL.

listopencil 04-18-2012 11:51 AM

Wait. Is there a Women's Lingerie Soccer League?

qabbaan 04-18-2012 11:52 AM

Looks like a European club team strip - very English.

|Zach| 04-18-2012 11:56 AM

Mixed feelings. It is distinctive and will look good on the field of play but not many people are going to want to buy and wear that in real life as much as the previous kits.

It is very similar to unis in Dallas.

Canofbier 04-18-2012 11:56 AM

I'm surprised that there aren't regulations against having working headlights installed in the armpits of the jersey, as there are in that picture. Maybe it's designed to make flopping more dramatic?

Sleeves should be blue so they don't look waldoish. Stars on one sleeve. Player number on the other.

Actually they should have to wear pink for not making the olympics.

Demonpenz 04-18-2012 12:32 PM

They should just have Red White and Blue with stars on the shoulder. Uniforms that say these colors don't run. The Sprint..to ****ing up your world and universe...woooo

qabbaan 04-18-2012 01:45 PM

Most people weren't positive on the old 'sash' look either... I think it will catch on

KCUnited 04-18-2012 02:57 PM

Shirt should have been all red with a white collar with SOLO written on the left breast.

Titty Meat 04-18-2012 03:00 PM

Soccer is for bundle of stickss

He doesn't, he rides bikes. (Well, sort of)

As far as the uniforms, I guess they are ok?

It was the under-23 youth team that didn't make the Olympics, not the USMNT proper.

What does that stand for? United States Metrosexual Needledick Team?

Oly, or PBR?

We still suck dick. Women are 1000% better.

|Zach| 04-18-2012 04:53 PM

The baby nationals had a rough run there but the senior USMNT is a good team. Lots of guys playing really good soccer around the world.

Last time out they beat Italy in their own house.

LOL. It caught my eyes immediately as well. I'm sure orange is not part of the official uni. They should have not included it in the photo. Traditional black shoes would be perfect.

Frankie 04-18-2012 05:50 PM

BTW, being that it is a play on the flag, I would put a vertical band of white stars on the sides of the blue shorts.

Or, the star band on one side and the players number on the other.

whoman69 04-18-2012 06:01 PM

Looks more like a rugby shirt. And the orange shoes have to go.

|Zach| 04-18-2012 06:07 PM

Shoes wise players wear what they like...there really isn't a uniform shoe at all in games. It has more to do with the shoe companies.

This finds itself more in Latin centric clubs.
